But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores.Susie Walton，a parenting educator and family coach，believes that by rewarding kids，parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. "Running any kind of household is a team effort，" Susie said. "A home is a living space for everyone in the family.It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house，and that families decide together how they want their home to look，and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look."
Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores，and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money.There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed（兑取）either online or in the real world.With the ChoreMonster app，kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. "Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards，" says Chris Bergman，founder of ChoreMonster. "Kids need positive reinforcement to help motivate them."
What do you think？Should kids be rewarded for doing chores？Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return？

（roll）by like a stream.发布：2024/5/23 20:38:36组卷：1引用：1难度：0.72600．My friend Tim was one of five children.His father was an alcoholic and died very young，and his mother was unable to support the family.Unfortunately，the children were separated and placed in foster homes（收养家庭）.
Tim dropped out of school and did nothing to further himself.He eventually went through a divorce.Tim's brother，although experiencing the same childhood，educated himself and got a good job.He has a happy family and a wonderful home.
Both brothers gave a similar answer when asked why their lives turned out the way they did.They said，"You'd turn out this way too if you had a childhood like mine." Neither of the brothers could change his past，but one of them adjusted（调整）his sail.
It doesn't take much to find an excuse whether that is our family background，our lack of education，or that we live in the wrong city，or do not know the right people.Each one of these excuses has a solution.However，if you believe that there is nothing you can do to turn your life around，then you won't be able to change your life for the better.
If you really desire to turn your life to a new course，to set your sail to a different port，it is a matter of choice.If you choose to move forward，the easiest way is to find a solution to your today's situation.Solutions are there if you want to go after them.Sure，it may take some hard work，or the willingness to take a risk.But if you do not，then you will never have a different or happy life.Do not limit yourself by finding an excuse；only limit yourself by refusing to have an excuse.
